about the yarns

Homelea Bliss and Homelea Happy are made from soft merino wool that is fully grown and processed in Australia with no overseas processing (it’s uncommon for an Australian wool yarn to not have some overseas processing).

They both feel soft and last well with regular use, and are free from acrylic, synthetics and superwash.
